I've searched for the cable and found out that everyone is saying the cable part # is teleflex ssc13417 but all I can find is ssc12417 which is still 17' long. is there a difference or are these the same ones?

Well i was just going to go to west marine, I was planing on boarding tomorrow but I got the crap feeling of getting in the boat and the steering is completely locked. Im in no need of shopping around for the cheapest price, i pretty much just need to get something to work ASAP haha. Ill bring the old one into the store to make sure but im hoping they have the 13417 sitting there waiting for me. BTW, is the tube that the cable threads into on the rudder side supplied with the new cable? Its the tube that the clamp bolts to.Comment

I just put in the cable which was equivalent to 5 ugly bitches but its all good, the part number i found was for the whole cable system while the cable itself was the right part number. Thanks to Tige's terrible fuel tank layout, it took hours just to run the cable the first 5ft but it went quick after that. I couldn't run it on top of the tank because the spacing between the tank and floor wasn't big enough for the nut on the cable to fit through.So some how I got very lucky/ frustrated and went agro on the cable and it somehow slide under the tank. All is good now though. Also, is the cable suppose to bolt on top of the rudder arm or below? I ran it on top because with the pivot mount on the cable, putting the cable to the bottom of the rudder forced the cable infront of the pivot mount to move up which it hit the water hose under the engine. The steering is all free and smooth so im not too worried about it.Comment
